Do You See the Skyline Melt?

[Señor Sunday Friday]

"He can't hide his emotions, it's nearly impossible for him." She nodded, looking towards Addison, then over towards Neko. "He likes you, and even better for you... I don't think he'll mind... you know what- if he's given a little bit of time after he finds out." Suzume spoke in a rather flat tone, she didn't particularly like talking about anyone when they weren't around and by telling Addison that Neko liked her... Suzume felt like she might have betrayed Neko, even if his actions betrayed him first. She pushed one of the small, half-serving cakes towards Addison Rae, "I'm too full. You should have one- they're really good but I wasn't as hungry as I thought." There was only one cake missing. She let out a little sigh, looking towards Neko for a few seconds, "So is there anything else you want to do, or should I just go back to my dorms or something till I'm needed?" She asked, not really knowing what she was supposed to do now... though the thought of going to find Cecil did occur to her but then she remembered the fact that at the current moment she was just skin and bones, probably not what Cecil would want to see. So it was decided that she wouldn't attempt to go find Cecil. She'd just hang out with Addison Rae.

[Sun-Hi]

“I-I don’t eat cake,” she paused as she gave a small sigh, “thank you for offering though…” Addison smiled as she said this, she was quite happy with what Suzume had just told her before offering the cake ‘He wouldn’t mind…? Does she really mean that he would be okay with me? But how do I tell him? I should really tell him sooner than later…but what if he never wants to speak to me again...or what if he tells everyone…’ her heartbeat fluttered as she hoped what Suzume had said was true. “Ah…well…you said something about you being poorly bathed and unsatisfactorily clothed, am I right?” She bit her lip before continuing, “Well, I was kind of wondering if you don’t like how you’re dressed… maybe… I don’t know… maybe I could help you with your clothes?” She asked with a hopeful smile, “But…About the bathing part…I don’t think I could help you with that one.” She gave a light laugh with a hint of nervousness. She shifted her weight from foot to foot a few times. “Though if we were to go get you some clothes you would probably want to bathe first, though then you would have to change back into your dirty clothes… unless you changed into something else that you have…”

"I guess I should do that now then, and afterwards I can meet you somewhere." she suggested while looking apologetically towards the wasted cake. "It would be a shame to ruin clothes before they're even bought." she admitted, though if someone stepped back they'd notice that she was being a bit harsh on herself, because it was unlikely she was unclean enough to ruin any clothes. She stood up and pushed her chair in, picking up the little cakes and walking them over to the garbage, "So what do you think...?" she asked, awaiting Addison Rae's game plan.

[Sun-Hi]

"I doubt that you would ruin them, they would really just need to be washed afterward..." She paused as she looked at her feet for a moment, "Meeting somewhere would be fine. It would be best if you picked it out since I don't know TMA that well." She smiled as she said this. 'She's quite harsh on herself. Though I probably would be harsh on myself too if there were so many rumors about me going around... I hope I can make her look at herself in a different light, maybe the way I see her.'

[Señor Sunday Friday]

"I could probably meet you back here or maybe down in the clothing and armor shop... whichever one is more convenient for you though if you can't find the clothing shop then it'd probably be best if I would show it to you." Suzume thought aloud, figuring that it'd probably be easier for Addison Rae if they both just met back here at the Ninth Heaven when they were done. She would of course wait for Addison Rae to finalize the plans because there was no point in leaving things unfinished and causing confusion later. Her gaze seemed a bit brighter now, though, showing she was atleast a bit happier. It was probably rather good for her to be spending time with other people rather than being cooped up in her room for any longer a period of time. Probably one of the things Addison Rae could be considered the luckiest with was that Suzume didn't particularly care how she dressed so it was possible to pick out any clothing you wanted and she would likely wear it, though it would be noted that due to the fact she had red hair, a pink article of clothing wouldn't probably look too nice on her, some might consider it a shame since pink is a rather adorable color, but meh, it was just a color anyways so it didn't really matter.

[Sun-Hi]

"I think it would be better to meet me back here...I still don't know my way around and with my luck I'd end up getting lost and possibly killed.." She said with a slight nervous laugh and smile. 'That way, since I have nothing to do, I could maybe talk to Neko for a little bit while I wait...'[/i] She thought as she looked at Suzume, she looked so much happier then before. Maybe all she had needed was someone who wouldn't reject her as she had said so many others had done.
Addison looked Suzume over, she wondered what would look good on her. 'Maybe some earthy tones....No pink, red, or dark blue though...' She bit her lip slightly as she thought, 'I wonder if lime would look good on her. Maybe just black and white would be good...though she would need a little bit of colour, black and white is too plain.'

(Greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen![/overlord])

Suzume nodded, "I'll see you later, then..." She then looked towards the trash pail that the cakes had been dumped into and she waved a little goodbye to them, no real reason why she did was given but she nimbly made her way out of the Ninth Heaven, her eyes looking down at her feet the entire way, not so much out of a morose expression but it was simply that she had seen the Ninth Heaven before and she had somehow recently just developed the habit of watching her feet as she walked.

Neko was continuing about his work, tripping over a chair or a person here and there and occasionally tripping over even his own feet but he didn't drop anything. His green eyes looked towards Addison Rae every free moment he got but he remained overall very quiet, his ears tilted down a bit, he looked almost thoughtfully confused, and about what who knew but he was thinking and from the way he kept looking up at Addison Rae- he was thinking about her. He tripped over a chair now, bumbling over in his little dark green apron and actually dropping a glass that then shattered on the ground, his attention drawn to his folley he then scurried off, taking the dishes to the back to get cleaned and then scurrying back out to clean the glass that had broken over the floor. He payed attention to the act of cleaning, making sure he didn't cut himself or something like that because Neko was not emo or something of the sort so cutting himself wasn't someting he planned to do any time in the near future.

[Sun-Hi]

Addison waved goodbye to Suzume before Suzume left. Addie then looked around to find Neko, he wasn't too hard to spot; he was the cute, clumsy cat boy. It looked like he had just dropped a glass and shattered it. So Addison Rae strolled over to him, her bright neon yellow heels making a clack with each step. "Do you need help Neko?" She asked him with a pleasant smile and a sweet tone of voice. Her fingers wrapped around her opposite arm’s elbow and her feet were turned in a bit. ‘I hope she was being truthful about him liking me and not caring about it…’ She thought.

[Señor Sunday Friday]

"You don't have to, you might get cut or something and then I'd be responsible for that." he said pointedly, continuing to clean up the shards of broken glass, his green eyes glinting slightly as he looked over the mess and then back up at Addison Rae "Addison... I..." he looked to the ground for another second and then music started playing throughout the Ninth Heaven, there was quiet music playing the entire time but just now the song came on and you could actually tell what it was...

'It's a bit funny, this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live...'

Neko's ears tilted down submissively a bit and he looked up at Addison Rae, "Perth told me about... well... you." Neko said, a bit awkwardly, you could tell he almost wanted to stutter but he didn't. "And I wanted you to know what it's... well, it's okay." He smiled a bit, hoping he wasn't making himself look like too much of an idiot, any particularly romantic soul would sing along with the music that was playing but considering the fact that Neko sang like a dying frog he did not sing.

'...If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you...'

[Sun-Hi]

Addison Rae got down of her knees to help Neko; she picked up a few of the small pieces of the glass. “Oh…” She said softly “I would have told you myself…I was going to wait for a good time to tell you though.” She sighed, she was happy that he was okay with it but she wanted to tell Neko. “I’m sorry.” She bit her lip slightly. Addie hadn’t looked up at Neko since she had gotten on her knees. Her stomach twisted up, her hand held the glass a bit tighter as her other arm rested across her lap and held onto her stomach lightly. “I would have probably told you when we first met but I’m afraid to tell anyone, especially guys, because my ex. ” She said. Her hand gripped onto her shirt tightly. “You know…” She paused, “You look just like him. Well, he had Elf ears instead of cat ears and he didn’t have the same hair colours as you do, but your faces are very similar.”

[Señor Sunday Friday]

'And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world'

"Well it's all okay, the only things that can hurt you here are school related, I doubt your ex could even get here- teleporting's not allowed and other than that you can only get here with a teacher escort, if you don't have the escort than you'll just be wandering about in the water untill you wind up back in the Ghost Shipyards." he explained, a bit of a smile on his face, not like that mattered since Addison Rae was too busy inspecting the floor, "Is there something there...?" he asked, looking at the floor where Addison Rae was, trying to figure out what it was.

'I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on'

[Sun-Hi]

"I'm not really worried about Oliver because it's not only him, it's all guys... Almost every guy I've met has done something bad to me. Oliver was definitely the worse though... Well maybe third worse... He hurt me physically, the other two hurt me physically and mentally..." She closed her eyes and sighed. She then gave a slight laugh when what Neko said registered "No," she said, "there's nothing there." Addison then looked up at Neko "Thank you." She said with a small smile.

[Señor Sunday Friday]

'.So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen...'

Neko grabbed Addison Rae by the arms, a serious expression on his face, his grip was tight and some might consider it threatening, even more so by the expression on his face, his expression kinda translated to 'This cat wasn't fucking around, got it?' "Addison. I will never hurt you. Ever." he said, "Do you understand?" he asked, completely serious the entire time, his green eyes looking into Addison's and it was kind of funny, he seemed like a little kid or something with his guarantee. His grip softened now, "I would never hurt you." He repeated his promise from a few seconds ago, mentally adding to it for his own noting, 'atleast not on purpose...' it was a rather sad thing to think to yourself but Neko had to admit that every once in a while he hurt people on accident.

'...And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world...'

[Sun-Hi]

Addison still got quite nervous when Neko grabbed her, she clenched her fists. A sharp pain ran through one of her hands, she had forgotten she was holding glass. Blood dripped from her hand onto the floor as Addison gave a small wince. "Neko..." She said weakly, "The glass." Her hand twitched slightly as she opened her hand, two of the pieces stuck straight up out of her hand. She looked at her hand for a few seconds before taking the two blood covered pieces out of her hand. "Owww.." She groaned almost silently. "I'm sorry..." She looked back at Neko. "It was my fault, I got nervous." She laughed a little "I think I get nervous cause I like..." She stopped as she realized what she was saying. "...you..." She finished quietly. She looked away from Neko, 'You're so stupid! Why did you say that?'

[Señor Sunday Friday]

"We should get those cuts taken care o-" he froze, looking to Addison Rae, "What..." He said, choking on the one simple word, his ears positioned in a manner to show he was confused, "Well I... I..." he looked down at the blood and glass on the floor, "I'll get something to disinfect your cut." he said, nodding quickly, showing that he was in fact very nervous. He tripped over his own two feet on the way there, recovering and hurrying to go get something and he dissapeared behind the bar, coming back with a glass of amber liquid, it was whiskey- alcohol to clean the wound- it'd smart something terrible but it would make sure that Addison's hand didn't get infected or something. "We have this... you don't have to use it, but you can." he said, offering the glass of hard alcohol to Addison Rae. The song that had been playing was over now and suddenly everything seemed awkwardly quiet... yep... awkwaaaaaard...
